Gor Mahia are representatives of Kenyan football and won the domestic league title last season. The team collected 69 points from 34 rounds, finishing five points ahead of the runners-up. They then participated in the CECAFA Kagame Cup, where they reached the final but lost 1-2 after extra time. Gor Mahia started the new domestic season with the Kenyan Super Cup, losing 1-3 to Tusker. Now, the team will try to qualify for the CAF Champions League.
Pyramids once again failed to become champions of Egypt last season. They lost the title race to Zamalek, collecting 54 points and finishing just two points behind the champions. Nevertheless, they earned a place in the CAF Champions League qualifiers. Pyramids have made an excellent start to the new season: three matches, three wins and no goals conceded. They and Al Ahly are currently the only two teams yet to drop points.
